Maybe if you lose 50 lbs.
This is the deal....if Bubba loses the 50 lbs. he's been wanting to lose for the past year, we will sell our house and belongings and travel around the world. This is the lame deal we made.
Bubba: "I think its time to start a diet again."
Me: begin laughter
Bubba: "No really. I want to lose 50 lbs. I want to be 210 again."
Me: "When do you want do that by? When do you want to start so I can make sure all the crap is out of the house. You know that means you can't have pudding every night."
Bubba: "I'll start after thanksgiving, so maybe it'll be off by the end of Feb."
Me: "Alright."
About 5 min. go by and he starts talking about selling everything and traveling around the world. So, then I opened the can of worms:
Me: "I'll make you a deal. If you lose the 50 lbs., we'll sell our shit and travel around the world." He immediately became like a 5 year old boy on X-mas morning!
Bubba: "Seriously? No, don't answer that. You have a deal and you can't back out of it."
Me: "Now we'll see how serious you really are."
Now the burning question is.....will he really do it? Over our lovely 4 year marriage I can't tell you how many times he/we have started a diet and it only lasted sometimes a few days and sometimes a few weeks. Who knows, maybe this is the incentive he needs. But, if he really does do it...what am I gonna do? Hopefully, I'll be pregnant by then so then there will be no question. But, on the flip side of that...it would be soooo much fun!!! If I'm not pregnant by then, I can garuntee you I will want to be on the other side of the world to run away from everything. What can I say? I'm a whimp.

He told me about this deal the other night and I thought it was a joke...but he got really serious. I think he just might do it, but then again maybe he will come to his sences and reality will hit and he'll still loose the weight but keep your house and stuff. i mean you guys want to buy a car soon right? would you sell that too? You guys are crazy...
hmmmm... did you put an end date on this? Like, if he EVER hits 210 again, you have to sell the house and travel the world? Or if he hits 210 by... 2007 you'll sell the house and travel around the world?
Go for it! I am all for this! You MAY want to get some Krispy Kreme donuts to ensure you win.
